I'm currently creating passages and flinging them around in Twine for the next CYOA scenario. Working title at the moment is "Escape Petalina's Flower Show". I'm not sure what Petalina is and I don't think the CYOA will clear this up. She looks elfin, likes gardening, and is quite possibly completely insane.

The scenario will have the player being exposed to various of Petalina's plants, and trying to avoid being completely drained or eaten by them.

I think this could be a full game in itself (depending on how many sexy plant girl scenarios and Bad Ends I write), but I'm conscious that Volumpula took longer than I was comfortable with. I'm aiming for 15-20 separate plants (most of which are fairly harmless) with maybe 5-8 having long and elaborate sexy bad ends.

At the moment I'm in the mapping out stage in Twine. I will try to get back into the habit of posting weekly updates (on Thurs/Fri) as I did skip a few in the middle of Oct.

The other thing I'm working on is trying to write my own interpretation of a boob monster story.

What's a boob monster? Well this:

(WARNING - very NSFW pics incoming!)

This was one of Monmusu Quest: Paradox's stranger designs.

Dieselmine also added a similar monster girl to their recent Monmusu Labyrinth:

I had an idea for a similar monster girl and what her "tricks" were. I also had an idea of how to use her in a real world setting (rather than having Stewart Peter Bate trip over his own shoelaces and fall into a pit of boobies in H-space).

Main thing I was missing was a back story for the protagonist. Then I figured out one... which started getting too long (and also more political than I liked). If you're familiar with writing, you'll know about the expression "kill your darlings". This is the cutting of paragraphs/plot, that while being cool and fun to write, are extraneous and don't add anything to the story. Well, these darlings took magnum shots to the head and still kept shambling. I think for this one I'll let the back story ramble for a bit and then slice it down so we can get to the giant bouncy boob part quicker.
